PostgreSQL does not have its own scheduler. Here's a comment at LWN that tries to correct the article a bit: http://lwn.net/Articles/518405/
I think at least part of the reaction to his platform choice is the way he is branding and positioning it. Calling it simply "The Magazine" for "geeks like us" is bound to ruffle some feathers, because there are a lot of geeks out there (disclaimer: I am certainly one of them) who think that Apple, despite their admittedly unmatched ability to create delightful hardware designs, is the primary negative actor out there when it comes to limiting what "geeks like us" are allowed to do with our hardware. And to be clear, I'm not some card-carrying member of the FSF or anything, I think Stallman is far too extremist, but I agree with him as far as Apple's negative influence on computing freedom is concerned.

Had this been initially positioned with the iOS slant it will surely have given the backer and the exclusive platform it will exist for, I doubt you'd be seeing nearly as much grumbling about it.

Intel HT is often disabled on HPC clusters due to performance problems. Also many people refer to the IL as a 8 core CPU due to the problems mentioned above. Much like not using the HT, many codes disable half the AMD chip.
Marco talked about his decision to require iOS 6 in previous episodes of Build and Analyze.

He wanted to try requiring iOS 6, because it would help him write cleaner code internally, but he actually has a version of the app that will work with iOS 5. Depending on adoption of the iOS 6 version, he may or may not "revert" support back to iOS 5.
The adoption rate for iOS6 has been amazing compared to previous versions that weren't OTA. Over 60% in less than a month (according to a statistically significant and diverse user base source: http://david-smith.org/iosversionstats/). I recall seeing some iOS5-only apps when it was adopted this widely after a few months.
Agreed. Was thinking to take a few features from Amazon :)
Good point - I don't know if that solves the problem of getting different forms of media into the system in the first place though. I think as long as people create and new types of media there will be interesting problems to search for them. Searching video based off of text queries, for example, is a much harder problem than simple text search!
I have one too actually, but I don't care because I'm not into paid ipad magazines.

10 Differences Between Industrial and Service Robotics
I've just been looking through the most popular Newsstand apps, and it suddenly occurred to me what's wrong with it: all the thumbnails are of print magazine covers, and they're all too small to read! If that doesn't scream "doing it wrong" I don't know what does.

The cover's meant to advertise the issue and make me want to buy it and I can't even read it. Why does Newsstand not have a "In this issue" tab when you preview the app? Why do I have to buy the whole issue instead of just an article? Why can't I have a central list of articles, that I can search, and favourite and share? The Newsstand API isn't aggressive enough. It needs to bring these publications into the future before we lose them.

Traditional print publications, which are producing quality journalism, need to adapt to new technology and release something like what Marco's doing here instead of trying to cram their paper format into an app with all the cruft that that entails.
Generally it's very nice, you go, meet a lot of people, share experience, present yourself, and listen to some talk.
I'd argue it's not so much about skeuomorphism as much as it is about affordance. They don't look like you can push them and interact with them, which means you need to be much more careful about the context and design language you use them in.
Oh boy, are you in for a treat then :)

Let's just say that there'll be news announced next week...
Regarding point 1: You are absolutely misguided. I have no obligation to defend them disgusting things until it is the government that is prosecuting the speech, rather than the community.

We have a moral obligation to protect free speech from government intrusion.

We have an equal or greater moral obligation to personally confront the KKK, and sexual predators in order to enforce moral standards within our community.

The government's job is to make sure we both get to speak, and don't kill each other over the disagreement. The first amendment has nothing to do with protecting KKK members from public shaming and expulsion for the views they profess.

Just because a problem has been "solved" for one platform (Fast PC's w/ Gigabytes of ram/disk) doesn't mean it is solved for all platforms (Web apps for phones/tablets, etc).

John Resig (of jQuery and Khan Academy fame) had a really interesting thread on creating a fast-loading (i.e. small, efficient) dictionary for a JavaScript app. http://ejohn.org/blog/revised-javascript-dictionary-search/

The comments have some really clever ideas for encoding the dictionary and Resig weighs in on his favorite solution with informative data. There's an interesting "Succinct Trie" data structure that turns a 620K dictionary into a 220K string that doesn't need to be decoded to be searched.

Thunderbird 16 supports silent updates
Webcam + sunshine + time = 3D model of your world
Apps that have hundreds of thousands of daily users are already seeing over 80% of their users are on iOS 6 and this is only after 21 days of it being available.

Any app I make from now on will be iOS 6 and up. The amount of time I spend not having to worry about iOS 5 bugs and testing allow me to add more features that will reach the majority of iOS users.

Spending tens (or possibly hundreds) of hours to make something that already works in iOS 6 work in iOS 5 to reach a small subset of iOS users is not worth it for most developers.
I've played with it but haven't found any great use case (except, now, this). Next time I come across an annoying z-index bug I'll probably bust it out. Anyone who has had the displeasure of build modals on modals (always a good UX) could sympathize.

Depends on your policy.

You can have a policy of "we are not allowed to publish personally identifying info of anyone."

You can have a policy of "we are allowed to publish personally identifying info of anyone at will," but you need to realize that it will also affect people you like as well as people you don't like.

What doesn't work is "we are allowed to publish personally identifying info of people that a sizable minority of the community thinks sucks."
One of the great things about the internet is that you can pretty easily and cheaply start your own website if you don't like how the one you're using is being run.
Shutterstock shares pop after $76.5 million IPO
I have just picked up electronics again after a hiatus, need to create some simple boards. Will try this. If it works and gets momentum,it will really be great!
If it makes enough money on iOS, I'm sure it will be ported to other platforms.

I guess it's example of passive aggressive income
There's only 15 million of you, if I recall correctly, and most of them have already coughed up more for the retina one. But there are 70 million iPad 2's and 3's, and I read on MacRumors that Apple expects to sell at least 10 million "mini" iPads in Q4 (not to mention a few more millions of iPad 2's and 3's, and a gazillion more iPad 4's when they introduce them), and almost all of them (except a few who are cranky about the maps, which would soon be forgotten when Google releases its maps app) are on iOS 6.

I too am starting a new iPad app, and it'll be iOS 6 only - because it'll be released early next year, and because it's really, really easier to only target iOS 6 as there have been many improvements in the APIs that literally cuts development time in half.
Telling Good Decisions From Bad. But Do You Know How?
Great article but somebody should change the title to remove the sensationalist "...to try and deny reality" - the story is interesting enough on its own merits without the personal touch IMHO..
what would you do if you won $60k while still in high school?
Very interesting.

So if their system is already highly optimized, or it's a small company so any gains wouldn't translate into large amounts of money, you'd suggest to pass on the opportunity?

Also, what happens if you improve the UX and make new workflows but the profits don't materialize for some reason? Would you not get paid?
Not all of us magazine makers are coders. For a lot of us, its all about the words, not the format. My little iPad-only travel magazine isn't even in Newsstand because I have no idea how to code it, but our articles have won awards. The technology is not as important as the content. I wish I could do all those things you mentioned, but the fact is I have no idea how. A big magazine might be able to do them, but it requires a total revamp of business practices and a restructuring of workflow. And that's hard when a magazine is staffed by people who will lose their jobs when digital magazines take off.
i like it man. no fucks given, just shipped
IMO JavaScript is that awful, but I still don't understand why you wouldn't just use Go or C# or whatever natively on the backend. There are lightweight frameworks similar in concept to node for virtually every language out there.

I understand why people write JavaScript translators for the browser -- there you're (unfortunately) stuck with JavaScript there is no other option. I also understand why people who do like JavaScript use node. Even though I'm not a fan of JavaScript, there is certainly some benefit to keeping a project all in one language. But if you're the type of person that wants to avoid JavaScript in the first place, why start off in a situation where you already have an overly complicated language-to-language transpiler situation on the backend?
He gave a link and said he thought it was simplistic.

Comparing the linked product with the product in the article would be a good start. The fact that he/she is anonymous does not make this invalid feedback, just like the fact that you are anonymous yourself does not make your comments invalid.

Don't you think if you've already signed up with gravatar you'd make the connection when your gravatar shows up?
The point is that getting upset at being doxxed is hypocritical when you're invading the privacy of multiple women. The fact that people who post there feel that they have the 'right' to have a safe haven for posting disgusting and degrading photos is craziness.
What's wrong with IPrincipal, which btw is a .NET, not MVC thing?
It really varies i think. When I took CS as a major, we came across threading in multiple classes but prominently in Operating Systems and Software Engineering. Some earlier data structure classes had assignments (Java/C++) where we had to write games using threading. I even remember that in one of the earlier game assignments, threading was a bonus point if used.
I don't use 3D view but I've used Jesse Rudderman's topo bookmarklet[1], which is conceptually very similar, for years. It's more useful in IE so you can see what tag IE is failing to close but it's useful for getting a quick feel for unfamiliar markup when doing Greasmonkey hacks and the like.

Nit pick: if it is guaranteed, call it Elimination, not Optimization, because it is part of the operational semantics required to reason about performance. As a compiler Optimization, you have an algorithm that is omega(n) space usage, but with Elimination as a language feature you have an O(1) space usage.

Yes, you can include compiler optimizations in your model of the language, but it helps to distinguish opportunitistic speedups from guaranteed complexity class improvements.
If anyone is looking to refresh their programming chops for a problem like this, here [1] is a fairly straightforward, simple implementation of a spell-checker. Provided for a Python Course at Harvey Mudd (the class I TA uses this new curriculum), the task is to memoize a recursive string-distance algorithm. The results are actually quite lovely.

I wasn't talking about the government.

"You" wasn't "you, thwest." It was to the reddit admins and their own desire to have a community of free speech. Once they, the reddit admins, decide that they, the reddit admins, want a community of free speech, then they, the reddit admins, are going to find themselves supporting the rights of assholes to speak.
Yeah, but it's really only on highly-optimized cache-coherent vector/matrix math that it's a problem. On just about every other piece of software, it works great.

I feel like AMD saw the benchmarks available for matrix math and went for it, rather than thinking about what real-world performance profiles looked like.
Things I like:
- the sign up form was really easy, which is good
- I like the star rating / comment combination, as it allows people to give details
- the ability to rank the difficulty of a course is nice (I'm assuming you have plans to somehow display this data once you have enough of it seeded)
- the ability to filter courses by tag is good (though who is deciding the tags?)

Things that could be improved:
- the Sign In With Twitter didn't work for me, I got an error
- I'd like to see a more detailed rating system (like rating the course on several criteria - 3 stars for material, 5 stars for instructor responsiveness, etc)
- I think the ability to up-vote or down-vote reviews would be nice
- The comment section should be more helpful in writing a review (suggest things the reviewer should talk about)

The value in this type of system is around the quality of the feedback. To that end, you need to make it a priority to get quality reviews from users. Having suggestions of what the user should write about, weighting reviews by up-votes, etc. are just ways to increase the quality of the reviews you receive. Things like "Nice course." aren't going to be helpful to anyone.

>> 2. It's more about the doxxing, which seems to be the one legal thing that isn't allowed on reddit. Either they have the policy that doxxing is horrible or they don't.

I guess the question is whether that is a sensible policy. It may make sense to protect anonymity - I can see that - but does it make sense to protect nothing else? Is anonymity really the only true community value?

You mean, "I sell an app for money, then I spend less than I make." This seems like a quite different business model than what's he's trying here, with a free app but paid subscriptions and paying authors and such.

The Instapaper model is much simpler... but it's clear Marco doesn't really like it much any more, since you only make money by selling the app once but it costs you to support those users forever. So "spend less than I make" eventually gets very difficult if sales trail off.
The story is heartbreaking.
What are some specific differences between iOS 5 and iOS 6, when it comes to app development?
Agreed, this would be a nice feature to add.
- Interesting note.

To the tune of $450, though, these constant amount in deferred revs is reasonably large source of working capital/liquidity @ ~5x their bank line. But valuation of the type implied in the headline should (most likely) be done on some concept of net cash, I would think. It cost you money to liquidate the assets before you get your hands on the cash.

Gross margin less SGA is only 30% of revenues, so maybe only $300mm-ish needs to be shaved off the cash balance from deferred revs. These liabilities must be incurred to realize the future revenues wigthout refunding back the pre-pays, good 1st approximation.

So, $1.0 to 1.1B is closer to the floor value. They are at $1.9B market cap a5 $2.50, so almost 2.0x coverage of this right now. (options, etc might swing this a bit).
Hopefully other platforms will develop ecosystems and service platforms attractive to stuff like this.

> "The Magazine: For geeks like us"

... geeks "like us" who only care about iOS and are willing to pay for content. Just to be accurate.

Not that there's anything wrong with paying for content. Every time you're confronted by an ad that you didn't volunteer to look at, you're paying for content.

But iOS-only seems like quite a limitation, and seems to contradict "for geeks like us" as the headline appears in HN.
I think that this is one of the instances it could work, especially with his audience. Hell, I'd buy it and my experience with anything Apple-related is zilch (thus I can't pay for it).
Xtuple/orm - A Javascript ORM inside Postgres
One of things that came to mind while reading the article is that spellcheck was a separate operation (F7 by default in Word Perfect), so the problem wasn't quite as difficult as autocorrect and auto-underlining have conditioned me to think about it.

Or, to put it another way, waiting a few seconds for access to a disk during spell check wasn't as big a deal as it would be today. Particularly since so much of what I type is now intended for instant publication. Twenty to thirty years ago, most of what got spellchecked were items that were to be printed...and mailed using snails.

"Idiots"? Seriously?

The speculation is not merely about planets that are lightyears away. The speculation includes asteroids. The Google cofounders, and James Cameron, and others, are funding Planetary Resources, which will mine near Earth asteroids. They will be launching their first satellites in 2-3 years and plan on beginning mining operations in about 10 years.

I think you are being extremely shortsighted and rude to call people "idiots" when they speculate about mining the asteroids.

Edit: It saddens me that the top post in this thread contains such hate and name-calling towards someone with the imagination to think about the future. Come on, HN, you're supposed to be better than this.

No text! I suggest that people who post a video with no accompanying text, include a warning flag "[Video Only]", in the fashion of "[PDF]", so people will be warned that they won't be able to (a) absorb the content very quickly compared to watching a video, or (b) copy/paste relevant sections for the purpose of editorial comment.
Many organizations (both SuperPACs and "charities") aren't included there.
